Chapter 86 Operation Successful

Boss Yin let out a long sigh and said helplessly, "Let's go. You lead the way!"

The white man looked at Boss Yin in surprise. "Boss Yin, do you mean you're coming with us?"

This question caught Boss Yin off guard, and he grumbled irritably:

"What else can I do if I don't go with you? Do I even have a choice?"

"No, I just didn't expect Boss Yin to be so cooperative. I thought we'd have to get rough."

The white man chuckled happily.

"Boss Yin, please have your driver wait in the car ahead. I'll drive for you."

Boss Yin, the leader of the Ghost Shadow Gang—the most powerful Chinese gang in New York—was thus easily taken away without any resistance throughout the process.

The two groups acted as naturally as if they had bumped into old friends on the street, exchanged greetings, and then agreed to go for a drink.

Behind this smooth process was a plan that a group of people had meticulously calculated for a long time.

The previous operation in Boston was still fresh in their minds, especially for the bodyguards led by Holt.

They had watched with their own eyes as one underworld figure after another slaughtered their own families and then turned the gun on themselves, all to secure a chance at life for their children in a desperate situation.

For today's operation, they fully exploited the Chinese weakness of valuing family, directly finding various important leaders of the Three Major Gangs and threatening their cooperation with the lives of their families.

They then packaged a seemingly reasonable excuse to weaken these people's resolve to fight to the death.

The final result was naturally very smooth; everyone, without exception, chose to cooperate and followed them obediently.

Ultimately, it was a very ironic situation.

When Wang Xiuyuan's bodyguards showed up to threaten these gang members with their families' lives, they had already realized the danger.

However, they were exposed to the enemy's muzzles at the time, and they couldn't find a better way to solve the problem. From beginning to end, they were held firmly in the grasp of Wang Xiuyuan's bodyguards.

They had no second option other than to cooperate.

Unless they didn't care about their families' lives or their own, and chose to pull their guns and fight to the bitter end like mindless fools.

But in the end, they were emotional and rational adults with things they cared about; the only difference was whether they cared more about their own lives or their families'.

As long as what they cared about was held by others, if they were given even a glimmer of hope, they would seize that opportunity at all costs, no matter how slim it was.

But often, it is this very mentality that leads to their downfall.

'Hope' is a good thing; it constantly inspires people to keep working hard.

But 'illusory hope' is poison; it leads those who pursue it to a place where they will die without a grave.

It's like a simp pursuing their god or goddess. Countless pieces of evidence and details have already proven that the god or goddess in the simp's heart doesn't care about them at all and has no feelings for them.

The god or goddess only strings the simp along to milk more benefits from them, which everyone around sees clearly.

Many people along the way couldn't stand to watch and tried to warn the simp, directly or indirectly, to cut their losses, but it was all in vain.

In fact, the damn simp knew it in their heart too. They had guessed this possibility countless times, but every piece of evidence and detail was eventually dismissed by the damn simp one by one.

The reason was simple.

The damn simp had invested a massive amount of money, time, emotion, and effort in the process of pursuing their god or goddess. Once they quit, their initial investment could not be recovered.

But as long as they didn't quit, there was a chance they might wait until the day of the harvest.

This is also why those who 'raise' simps give them a little sweetness from time to time. If you don't give a little hope, the simp will despair, and once they despair, they will choose to give up.

Then how can the 'owner' continue to extract benefits from the simp?

This sunk cost will wear the simp down to death. Even if the 'owner' releases the simp out of a momentary act of kindness, the severely scarred simp will never believe in love again for the rest of their life.

How does a kite fly the highest?

After the kite is in the sky, you have to tug the string from time to time, alternating between tight and loose with a proper rhythm, so that the kite can fly high and far.

If you let go of the string, the kite will eventually fall on its own. If you keep pulling the string back, how can the kite fly high?

It wasn't Wang Xiuyuan's bodyguards who took away the core members of the Three Major Gangs, but rather these illusory hopes.

...

"I know, but I've been very busy lately. Mars and I are planning to create a TV show. Once my proposal is written, I'll go take a look."

On the phone, Wang Xiuyuan was patiently explaining to the other party.

The Private Prison Company he ran with a group of wealthy heirs had officially started operations a few days ago. Renoson, Devik, and Locke had called Wang Xiuyuan multiple times asking him to visit the prison to inspect and guide the work.

Logically, Wang Xiuyuan should have toured the various prisons and provided suggestions for improvement before the opening, but he had been incredibly busy during this time. He didn't have the leisure to run around everywhere.

Although Wang Xiuyuan patiently and repeatedly explained his difficulties, Devik on the other end of the phone was truly getting anxious this time.

"No way. You were busy a month ago, and a month later, you're still busy. Our prisons are already open!"

"If anything goes wrong, how can I handle it alone? For safety's sake, you must come in person, and within a week."

"You have to give me a definite time right now, or I'll come to your house and block you myself."

"I have no confidence at all!"

Since Devik had put it that way, Wang Xiuyuan naturally couldn't ignore it. After all, he held a large number of shares in these companies, and it wouldn't be right if he didn't do any work.

Wang Xiuyuan thought carefully for a moment. The problem with the Three Major Gangs could be solved tonight, and the show proposal could be finished within two days.

Aside from those old guys at Manzhou Mansion in Chinatown, counting it up, there really wasn't much else to be busy with.

"Fine, since you insist, I'll definitely find time to go to the company within five days."

"I'll specifically set aside a few days to accompany you all on an inspection of the company's prisons. Are you satisfied now?"

Seeing that Wang Xiuyuan had finally given a definite answer, Devik on the other end of the phone was almost overwhelmed with excitement.

"Great, then it's a deal. In five days, come directly to the company to meet up. The offices for all three of our companies are on Fifth Avenue."

"Be there or be square. If you dare not to show up, I will definitely go to your house and block you."

"Hanging up now."

Listening to the hang-up tone from the receiver, Wang Xiuyuan felt a bit helpless.

He really didn't want to go to the prisons for inspection. A prison isn't exactly a nice place; who would want to hang around there for no reason?

Moreover, prisons in America and prisons in China are two completely different things. The bodies of Chinese people have evolved more perfectly, and the proportion of those with body odor or underarm odor is very low.

But it's different for other races, especially for white people.

Almost ninety-nine percent of white people have severe body odor or underarm odor issues. If they sweat a little or don't bathe for a day, the smell can practically choke someone to death.

What are the conditions in prison?

To save on water costs, it's considered good if the prisoners get to bathe once every three days.

Just thinking about it, one can imagine how foul it must smell in there. Wang Xiuyuan had no desire to go to a prison and suffer.

(The first round of PK failed, and the traffic has been cut off. It's disheartening.)

(But I will definitely keep writing. Don't worry, brothers. When I'm in a good state, I'll still add extra chapters.)

(Brothers, please follow and favorite, and check out the latest chapters every day.)

(Brothers who have recommendation tickets and monthly tickets, please spare a few. Maybe next Friday I'll have a chance to participate in a new round of PK.)
